Saw Resident Evil. Enjoyable! Does not plod at ALL—plenty of changes in locale, likeable characters (what little characterization there is), and it's a lean hour and a half long. It will challenge your desire to yell things at the screen, but that's because you care what's happening.

Tonight in Wardogs I earned a respectable chunk of change by looking at enemies from a high place through binoculars and snitching on their location to teammates. I didn't even bother investing in a gun.

Wardogs is a very specific kind of Dad Game for folks who have left the twitchy days of CoD and to a lesser extent Battlefield behind but don't want to invest time in beardy fare like ARMA.
You can gain XP and money just for driving teammates to "soccer practice," which in this game is "battle."

So the please-don't-divest tapdance evolves from bonkers self-valuations (the $30t figure from a little while ago) to lining up excuses for revenue not materializing.

Tried Wardogs this evening, refunded at 110 minutes' playtime. Not because I didn't enjoy the game!
I learned that rounds last a LONG time and getting through even *one* would take up most of a given weekday evening—I surmised that I wouldn't realistically be sitting down to do that very often.

![Q: A couple years ago at IDFA, I saw this movie "About a Hero," which is this partly Al-generated hybrid documentary that tries to recreate the atmosphere of your films.
A: The intention of this young filmmaker was never to remake any [of my films], but making something in the spirit. And I immediately said, "You will fail. It is such a stupid idea. It's phenomenally, abysmally stupid. I will not take part in it." He wanted me to explain things and have my voice in it.
I said, "You are alone. There's such a thing as free speech, which I respect. So go ahead and fail." And it is a failure, period.
It's so standardized that Al can step in because there's not real storytelling. It's mimicry of something that has happened before. And I welcome Al to replace all the idiots who are into nothing but repeating, repeating, repeating until it's ad nauseam.
When it's ad nauseam, please, please, please let Al step in and do the job.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:v5vphilwcf6nunioeyrpxw6g/bafkreibeadpx66jtqlttglhgbgkew6g65haxqngz5yt6p3ybwyi5zney54)

When the ticker used to denote "equity valuations" is the ticker for the ENTIRE S&P 500, that qualifies as a Yikes.
Perhaps even a Big Yikes.

Though really, the effort:satiety ratio prevents blue crabs from constituting a meal. Picking meat out of them at a table is largely a social activity, a thing to do with your hands while you shoot the shit with friends.
